Midnight and Flowers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798896759133)

Professional Chef Melinda Montgomery has always been at the top of her game. As the successful owner of a destination restaurant, nestled along the banks of the Hudson River just fifty miles north of the Big Apple, she has held a spot on the 'Best in the County' for five years running. But what she has failed to notice is that her relentless pursuit of success has taken a toll on her own well-being, and her personal life and relationships have ceased to exist. On an early spring morning, it all comes suddenly crashing down. The career she loves and the success she craves have become an obsession that is never satisfied. She no longer has time for herself or anyone else. And in that moment, she decides that she has had enough. Melinda sells her restaurant, ends the lease on her apartment, and moves north to the Adirondack Region, where the beauty of the wilderness is ready to envelope her into its healing arms. The sounds of wildlife and tranquility of the forest; and the end of constant and demanding attention on her every thought and action; start to work their magic--in more ways than one. A visiting feline becomes her wingman, and she begins to navigate through a new normal where she understands the world of animals and the power of nature within her grasp. A routine hike through the forest unleashes an ugly truth: Poachers are operating in the woodlands she loves. Now she is thrust into a new role of responsibility. The challenges that await her, and the bonds she makes with those who will help her, begin a tale of healing, truth, and the strength of human connection.
